Abstract

ARQ 501 (3, 4-dihydro-2, 2-dimethyl-2H-naphthol [1, 2-b] pyran-5, 6-dione), a synthetic version of β-Lapachone, is a promising anti-cancer agent currently in multiple Phase II clinical trials. Promising anti-cancer activity was observed in Phase I and Phase II trials. Metabolism by red blood cells of drugs is an understudied area of research and the metabolites arising from oxidative ring opening (M2 and M3), decarbonylation/ring ...
